Charles talks to Senator Tom Cotton about China—in particular, about his new book,&nbsp;<a href="https://amzn.to/41kGQL2" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><i>Seven Things You Can’t Say About China</i></a>. Why does Senator Cotton say that the Chinese Communist Party is ‘evil’? Why does he think it’s preparing for war? What does he mean when he says that it’s engaged in ‘economic warfare’? Has it really ‘infiltrated’ the United States? Why should TikTok be forced to become an American company? What can we do to avoid disaster?
